It's a throw away project on a throwaway vm instance.
issues with large keys, though - Key on the top1000 list aren't
usable

And: Setting gpgcheck to 0 in yum.conf should disable global gpg checking, you can turn it on for each repository in the .repo files under /etc/yum.repos.d/. So the choice of how you shoot yourself in the foot with unsigned packages is up to you >:)
But there are no (temporary) options from the command line?
I haven't found any. Something like --nosign or --ignore-nokey would be great.
I generally copy /etc/yum.conf to /etc/yum.localinstall.conf and change the gpgcheck flag to 0, then use "yum -c /etc/yum.localinstall.conf localinstall package" to install any unsigned packages.
I've only used it with packages from a know good source (mostly locally built).
Ummm, from the yum man page:
--nogpgcheck Run with gpg signature checking disabled. Configuration Option: gpgcheck
Does that do what you want?

That works on CentOS 5, but I don't think it was an option before. Oh

time to plan some migrations anyway.
But it is for the rolling of v5 rpms for v4 that we needed it, **sigh**.
